This case report describes a unique instance of late-onset Björnstad syndrome in an 18-year-old female, mimicking androgenetic alopecia, and indicates potential improvement with JAK inhibitor baricitinib, highlighting the need for considering this syndrome in similar cases of patterned hair loss in young individuals.

Home photobiomodulation therapy can improve life quality and mobility for disabled individuals.

In this case study, a 21-year-old man with alopecia universalis experienced temporary hair regrowth after treatment with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 following a tibial fracture.

This study found that the gene BSSP, a serine protease, is predominantly expressed in sebaceous glands and is overexpressed in nude mouse skin.

In this summary, the researchers describe the Brazilian keratin treatment as a popular hair-straightening process that originated in Brazil in 2003 and has since gained global traction, particularly for smoothing and straightening curly or frizzy hair through a keratin-based product and heat application.

This study describes the development of the BASP classification system, providing a universal and systematic approach for classifying pattern hair loss in both men and women.

This study found that bikunin is expressed in human keratinocytes and may play a role in regulating keratinocyte function during mitosis or inflammation.

This study found that RADA-PRG hydrogels enhanced skin-derived precursor cell proliferation and improved hair follicle neogenesis in mice, suggesting potential use as a scaffold material in tissue engineering.

This study found significantly higher levels of the protein ULBP3 in patients with alopecia areata incognita compared to other hair loss conditions and healthy controls, suggesting ULBP3's potential as a diagnostic marker for AAI.

This study concluded that allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) is more reliable than tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for genotyping the SNP rs1998076 due to better stability and interpretability.

EBF1 controls hair type and length.

In this study, researchers found that interaction between transcription factor EBF1 and gene WNT10A, influenced by a genetic variant, may play a role in hair shaft formation and anagen shortening in male pattern baldness.

This article contains no new research findings or results.

This article provides an interview with the founding members of the British Association of Hair Restoration Surgery.

Capsaicin cream quickly relieved itching in two patients with brachioradial pruritus.

This report suggests that patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax should be evaluated for FLCN mutations, as they may indicate Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome and associated cancer risks.

Among a Han Chinese cohort, this study found that a higher genetic risk score was linked to increased susceptibility to BPH, larger prostate size, reduced effectiveness of 5ARI treatment, and a higher risk of undergoing TURP.

This article discusses photobiomodulation as a potential adjunct to hair follicle organoid culture for androgenic alopecia, reporting no new results and suggesting further study is needed.

This study reports that cannabinoid receptor type 1 may influence psoriasis development by modulating laminin-511 expression, suggesting a potential target for treatment.

This abstract introduces baricitinib as an approved treatment for adults with severe alopecia areata in the US, Europe, and Japan, but does not report any specific study results or findings.

In this placebo-controlled study, finasteride significantly improved symptoms, reduced prostate size, and increased urine flow rate in patients with moderately symptomatic BPH over two years.

This study reported that BRL 7660 significantly reduced sebum secretion and acne symptoms in human studies with topical administration, but the placebo effect and commercial pressures halted further investigations.

This case report documents a middle-aged female with black piedra on her scalp hair, confirmed through potassium hydroxide examination and fungal culture.

In this study, the pi4kβ1β2 double mutant in Arabidopsis thaliana exhibited altered root growth, increased susceptibility to Blumeria graminis, and a potential correlation between PI4K activity and auxin response and immunity due to changes in vesicular trafficking and actin filaments.

The project developed and tested a method using plasma rich platelets to treat hair loss.

Methylated gene parts may cause finasteride-resistance in some enlarged prostate patients.

This study found that the peptide derivative beta-Ala-Pro-Dab-NHbenzyl may reduce wrinkles and sebum production in human skin by inhibiting dipeptidyl peptidase 4, suggesting potential for acne and skin inflammation treatment.

This study reports that newly diagnosed patients with Bachmann-Bupp syndrome exhibit a broader phenotype than previously documented, including late-onset seizures, and suggests a possible universal biochemical mechanism involving elevated ODC activity.

Biotin supplements did not significantly reduce hair loss in rats on valproic acid.
